That might work if you on dialup. Please see the "setting up ddclient"
thread from around 20 Dec, and specifically:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.user/131744
and my correction
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.user/131745

The line needs to be:
use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.com/, web-skip='IP Address'

Also, one reason why your friend may not be able to see your picture; it
is actually a Flash. They won't see it if they do not have flash
installed or have flash turned off (as I do most of the time).
